====== Game World (Islands & Locations) ======

Motor Town features a vast open world composed of three distinct islands, each offering unique landscapes, challenges, and opportunities for players. The world is divided into **Jeju Island** in the north, **Oji Island** in the south, and the smaller **Ansan Island** situated between them. These islands are interconnected by two long bridges: one stretching from [[jeju:towns:sinchang|Sinchang]] on Jeju to [[oji:towns:biyang|Biyang]] on Oji via [[landmarks:ansan_island|Ansan Island]], and another connecting [[jeju:towns:seongsan|Seongsan]] directly to northern [[oji:towns:biyang|Biyang]].

===== Jeju Island =====
[[jeju:jeju_island|Jeju Island]] is a volcanic island boasting a temperate climate, reminiscent of its real-life South Korean counterpart. Its diverse geography includes beaches, grasslands, flower fields, forests, and a prominent snow-capped volcano. The island features a well-developed road system supporting public transportation via bus and taxi services.

While largely rural, Jeju Island is home to several farms, ranches, racetracks, a fishing village, and a handful of small towns. The largest urban centers are [[jeju:towns:gangjung|Gang-Jung]] and its neighboring [[jeju:towns:seoguipo|downtown Seo-Gui-Po]], located in the south-central part of the map. The [[military:military_base|Military Base]] is situated north of the volcano, and [[jeju:towns:jeju|Jeju Town]] (including the [[jeju:locations:jeju_airport|airport]]) is found in the northern region.

  *   To the west of [[jeju:towns:jeju|Jeju Town]] lies [[jeju:towns:oedo|Oedo]], followed by [[jeju:towns:aewol|Aewol]] and then [[jeju:towns:hallim|Hallim]] further west.
  *   On the eastern side of the island, starting from the north, you'll find [[jeju:towns:gujwa|Gujwa]]. Further south on the easternmost point of Jeju Island is [[jeju:towns:seongsan|Seongsan]], with many farms nearby.
  *   In the south, [[jeju:towns:gangjung|Gangjung]] (home to the [[companies:asean_hq|ASEAN Headquarters]]) and [[jeju:towns:seoguipo|Seoguipo]] form a metropolitan area.
  *   The [[racetracks:olle_speedway|Olle Speedway]] is in the southwest, close to the bridge to Ansan and Oji.
  *   The [[companies:dealerships:namwon_bus_dealership|Namwon Bus Dealership]] is east of [[jeju:towns:seoguipo|Seoguipo]].
  *   The island's center is dominated by a large snow-capped mountain with touge-style roads. Slightly northeast, the mysterious [[landmarks:jocheon_old_mansion|Jocheon Old Mansion]] awaits exploration.

===== Ansan Island =====
[[landmarks:ansan_island|Ansan Island]] is a small landmass positioned strategically between Jeju and Oji Islands, connected by a network of highways. The island is primarily occupied by the [[racetracks:ansan_speedway|Ansan Speedway]] racetrack and its adjacent facilities. A raised section of highway running next to the island is a popular spot for players to engage in top speed record attempts.

Ansan Speedway is the longest racetrack in the game (2.6 km), featuring a challenging combination of long straights and sharp hairpin turns. It is well-equipped with 20 garages, a fuel pump, and a charging station, and is fully illuminated for night racing.

===== Oji Island =====
[[oji:oji_island|Oji Island]] is the game's largest landmass, presenting a blend of mountainous forests, rolling green hills, impassable deserts, and coastal cliffs. It is sparsely populated, offering considerably longer routes for drivers. The island is linked to the rest of the map via extensive highways and bridges. Keep in mind that Oji Island has limited services, with no garages and only two gas stations ([[oji:towns:biyang|Biyang]] and [[oji:towns:joil|Joil]]), making careful fuel and vehicle condition management crucial.

*   **Towns & Locations:**
    *   The main town on Oji Island is [[oji:towns:gapa|Gapa]].
    *   [[oji:towns:gwangjin|Gwangjin]] is a remote town deep in the mountains, accessible via a challenging off-road route.
    *   [[oji:locations:migeum|Migeum]] features off-road logging sites but lacks a permanent population.

*   **Natural Resources:**
    *   Logs can be harvested from [[industries:migeum_logging|Migeum Logging]] sites.
    *   Coal is found at [[industries:gwangjin_coal|Gwangjin Coal]].
    *   Iron Ore is extracted from the [[industries:gwangjin_iron_ore_mine|Gwangjin Iron Ore Mine]].
    *   Crude Oil is pumped at [[industries:oji_drilling|Oji Drilling]].
    *   [[industries:dasa_harbor|Dasa Harbour]] also supplies coal and iron ore, albeit at a slower rate than the mines.

*   **Deserts:**
    *   The northwestern deserts, near [[oji:locations:dongsan|Dongsan]] and [[oji:locations:nobong|Nobong]], are traversable and full of large sand dunes, perfect for off-roading and rallies.
    *   The southwestern desert near [[industries:dasa_harbor|Dasa Harbour]] is mostly impassable, limiting vehicles to first gear due to the sand conditions. It is advisable to stick to the paved roads when traveling to Dasa Harbour.

===== Game World Distances =====
The longest journey in the game spans approximately 40 km, from [[jeju:towns:jeju_harbor|Jeju Harbor]] (north on Jeju) to [[industries:dasa_harbor|Dasa Harbor]] (southwest on Oji). Here are some other key distances:
  *   [[jeju:towns:jeju|Jeju Town]] to [[jeju:towns:gangjung|Gangjung]]: 6 km
  *   [[jeju:towns:jeju|Jeju Town]] to [[jeju:towns:seongsan|Seongsan]]: 5 km
  *   [[jeju:towns:jeju|Jeju Town]] to [[oji:towns:biyang|Biyang]] (via [[racetracks:ranch_oval|Ranch Oval]], [[racetracks:olle_speedway|Olle Speedway]], and the Ansan bridge highway): 11 km
  *   [[jeju:towns:gangjung|Gangjung]] to [[oji:towns:biyang|Biyang]] (via the [[industries:scrapyard|Junkyard]], [[racetracks:olle_speedway|Olle Speedway]], and the Ansan bridge highway): 9 km
  *   [[oji:towns:biyang|Biyang]] to [[oji:towns:gapa|Gapa]]: 5 km
  *   [[jeju:towns:gangjung|Gangjung]] to [[industries:oji_drilling|Oji Drilling]]: 20 km
  *   [[jeju:towns:jeju|Jeju Town]] to [[industries:oji_drilling|Oji Drilling]]: 20 km
  *   [[oji:towns:biyang|Biyang]] to [[industries:migeum_log_warehouse|Migeum Log Warehouse]]: 1.6 km


===== Town Bonus =====
Town bonuses are a significant feature influenced by population and payment bonuses. Each town has a terminal and a supermarket, and its overall status is tracked by bus, food, patrol, and garbage coverage levels. Higher coverage levels increase the town's population bonus, which in turn boosts job payments.

The formula for bonuses is:

  *   **Town Population Bonus** = Bus Coverage + Food Supply + (Patrol Coverage * 0.2) + (Garbage Collection * 0.2)
  *   **Town Payment Bonus** = Town Population Bonus * 0.2 (capped at 30%)

While increasing coverage leads to more people to transport and higher payments, there are diminishing returns. For example, a bus coverage beyond 80% will not offer additional town bonus, though the displayed percentage may exceed 80%.
